Ulysses G. Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) It was dry yesterday too, wasn't it? My favorite veggie restaurant closes every time they can't sell beer. Edited August 3, 2012 by Ulysses G. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semper Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 You obviously had the forethought to plan ahead... Bought today, (Mom&Pop style shop) of course there's a sign outside saying "no alcohol today". Guess that's only to keep the police away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PETDCAT Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 It is not illegal for everyone to sell alcohol. If you can afford a big hotel you are exempt. The National Alcohol Policy Committee states that nobody is allowed to sell alcohol products on Magha Puja Day, Vesakha Puja Day, Asalha Puja Day and Buddhist Lent Day. However, alcohol can be sold in hotels so as not to affect the tourism industry negatively. http://www.chiangmaicitynews.com/news.php?id=652 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
